Kafeel Aazar Amrohvi

tum se rah-o-rasm baḌha kar divane kahla.en kyuun

jin galiyon men patthar barsen un galiyon men jaa.en kyuun

vaise hi tarik bahut hain lamhe gham ki raton ke

phir mere ḳhvabon men yaaro vo gesu lahra.en kyuun

majburon ki is basti men kis se puchhen kaun bata.e

apna mohalla bhuul ga.i hain be-chari laila.en kyuun

mustaqbil se aas bahut hai mustaqil kaisa bhi ho

maazi kis ke kaam aaya hai maazi ko dohra.en kyuun

haan ham ne bhi aaj kisi ka nazuk sa dil toḌa hai

shahr-e-vafa ki rasm yahi hai ham is par sharma.en kyuun

khiḌki khiḌki sannaTa hai chilman chilman tanha.i

chahat ki mahfil men ab ham naqd-e-dil-o-jan laa.en kyuun

va.adon ke jangal men ‘azar’ ham to barson bhaTke hain

aap karen kyuun dil pe bharosa aap ye dhoka kha.en kyuun
